I'm a student studying creative writing and preforming arts.

I write fanfiction for The Outsiders. I'm still continuing my other stories from the other fandoms, but I won't be posting any new stories for them.

For The Outsiders fandom, I mostly like reading and writing about the Shepard siblings. I've done a few Curtis brothers ones, even a one-shot in my head I'll post soon, but the Shepards are what mainly interest me.
All of my stories tie in with That was Then, This is Now, a novel written by S.E. Hinton taking a place a year after The Outsiders. You may notice a bit of foreshadowing in some of my fics for it. To those of you who haven't read the novel, I would recommend it.

I like...romances. But not just any romances. A new girl moving to town, being attacked by Socs, and being saved by the gang is not a romance. It's an overdone plotline. I'm really interested in realistic ones, ones that involve canon charatcers, and I don't mind well-written OC's.
I also like...the canon pairings, as mentioned before. Dallas and Sylvia are probably my favourite one to read, because they're both just out there. Steve and Evie also interest me, and Angela and Bryon from TWTTIN seem fun--I'm thinking about writing them sometime soon.
I really like...the characters. Let's keep them the way they are.

I don't like...Mary-Sues. Need I say more?
I really don't like...reading poor grammar and/or spelling. When I read it, I just think are you that lazy? There are now beta-readers on the site, but I do have to respect people who don't find having one necessary because there is something called a spellcheck on their Microsoft Word system. Okay ... I'm done.

About my writing--

I write mostly one-shots. I love writing the Shepard siblings, especially Angela (likely because she is my exact opposite). She's probably my favourite S.E. Hinton character to write, although the minor characters are also fun.

I'm only working on one Outsiders chapter fic, but expect more to come!
